CONNECTIONS, the ceramic art of Katherine Mathisen at Fifth Avenue Art Gallery in June

Exhibit dates: May 31 - June 26

The 2015 100% Pure Florida exhibit winner, Katherine Mathisen, is the featured artist at Fifth Avenue Art Gallery from May 31st through June 26th. "CONNECTIONS, the ceramic art of Katherine Mathisen," will open on May 31st and run through June 26th. There
will be an opening reception on Friday, June 3rd, from 5:30 pm through
8:30 pm. Katherine will be there to answer questions about her art.

Katherine's
work, done by hand, uses earthenware clay and a combination of surface
glazes, engobes, colored slips, stains, terra sigillata and Egyptian
paste. Creating figurative sculpture posed in simple gestures to convey
human emotion and relations, Katherine's current work blends clay and
other media in an artfully articulate way. She has recently been awarded
the 2016 Edith Bush Charitable Foundation Art of Philanthropy Award and
was the poster artist for the 2016 Artisphere in Greenville, South
Carolina.

Fifth Avenue Art Gallery is located in the Eau Gallie Art District of Melbourne, Florida.
